Bill's Going Away

Bill McDonald was the first detachment director.  Then, they had trouble filling the spot.  2 of our friends got it, then declined it!  Finally, Bill's replacement arrived, and we got to have a going away BBQ with cake!
Skip put this together, and did most of the work.  At some point I was teasing him and Tim about not having mayonnaise for the burgers (I had wanted to bring some, because Tim likes it, and Tim said that there should be some there).  Skip said, and I've taken this to heart for parties and such, 
that he used to try to have everything, but now he just keeps it simple.


The next folks to go will be us (Tim), Strands, (Liesl and Erin in the back) and Kasey (right).  All about the same time!  Keepin' it simple!

It was a great potluck, where Bill spoke a few words.


Here's my cuties, Ian and Dougie!  Stefan is also listening to what Bill had to say.

But then, Mr. 'Keep it Simple' got out the arsenal:
Yep, the kids got to gear up to say their own 'get the heck outta here before someone else decides not to take the job and come!'

All the big action shots were blurry, but the end result was...

a wet T-shirt.  Good-bye, Mr. Bill!
